NA1SS/K7RAT school QSO scheduled to be on NBC Nightly News

The Oregon students' chat with the International Space Station, NA1SS, via K7RAT on 2M is the tentative subject of a report on NBC Nightly News this Sunday, 3/10/2002..... subject, of course, to being "bumped" from the newscast by the press of other news, events in Afghanistan, etc.

Unfortunately, NBC's televised basketball schedule will PRE-EMPT the broadcast in the East and Midwest. It will only be available in the West! Air times are either 5:30-6pm, or 6-6:30pm, or 6:30-7pm WEST COAST TIME.

Sorry about that.... however, if you have one of the DBS "little dish" satellite systems, Echostar or Direct TV for example, and can receive KNBC in Los Angeles at 530pm PST,(830pm EST), you'll be able to see it!
